Desc: Cissy Sissney and her family are staking their claim. Along with a handful of other entrepreneurs they've stepped off the train into the brand-new town of Florence Oklahoma and started building a future. But the president of the railroad says no more trains will stop in Florence -- ever. Without the railroad the town can't survive. So it's up to Cissy her family friends and neighbors to stop the train any way they can.
